I'm also not entirely able to convince myself that the above error checks and code line up with what I'd expect the userspace ABI to be, we seem to be treating offset as both a byte offset into the data (which is what I'd expect the userspace ABI to do) and a word based index into the data (which is what the regmap API is doing). For example with 16 bit words offset 2 will start at the 5th byte of data but if userspace seeks to offset 5 it will get the 11th byte and onwards. The stride and the word size are separate, they will frequently line up for memory mapped devices but typically won't for other devices. I think you need more data mangling to handle this robustly.
